Another advantage of the "it's on your phone" aspect is that it follows you when you switch cars. If I use my friend's car, I still have MY system. If I rent a car for a trip, I st…

I think this is cool proof of concept. But a warning: because it stores all the data on your PDS, and (at the moment) all PDS data is public, DO NOT USE IT to store any private inf…

First of all, that’s great. That’s what I hope it would happen: non technical people using this tools, feeling the apart of “power” of coding, and feeling the desire to learn more.…

I made something similar on my blog and had the same question. I decided to show in my blog only the comments that I liked. Therefore transforming the “like” action into an “I appr…

This works for me in general. If I am procrastinating, I ask a coding agent for a small task. If it works, I have something to improve upon. If it doesn’t work, my OCD forces me to…

Not only that. My brain operate differently at different times. I may find that an approach that works for me now doesn't work in a year. It doesn't mean the approach is "wrong" or…

> And if you know enough to know to ignore ChatGPTs suggestions, you didn’t need it in the first place. This will invalidate even ispell in vim. The entire point of proofreading is…

I added this configuration to make it works more tab-like. [actions.sidebar] buffer = "replace-pane"

This looks fine, but then if I rename the note, the code changes, invalidating all the hand-written notes links. So it feels unpractical. I would still prefer to encode the creatio…

Yep. It sounds more like a dictation error as “fifteen” and “fifty” sound similar. No idea why this should matter in the slide production process though.

I buy from Bandcamp and Qobuz (especially for classical and artists that are not on Bandcamp).

For the people interested, Swinsian has a beta version that is actively developed. I got an update a couple of weeks ago. So it is not abandoned.

The fact that this website decided to "fade out" the paragraph at the scrolling level where I usually read is infuriating.

Any service without a free tier pays more than Spotify because only premium users contribute to the number of streaming that will be payed. In some sense, premium Spotify users pay…

Animal life is just a different permutation of electrons, carbon and “software”.

I update it with Brew on macOS and Scoop [1] on Windows (but I guess it is included in other package managers such as chocolatey). Of course, a built-in auto-updater would be good,…

I agree. For months, I wanted to ditch Bootstrap from my blog theme and implement all the CSS from scratch. But the idea of making a "perfect" theme was daunting. Then, at some poi…

None propagation. It such a pain to constantly check for None when accessing very deep nested structures (as I had to do often with JSON data). There is a PEP for this[1] but it is…

On my website, I set up a webhook to a Zapier “send email” zap: I have a basic contact form and a button that, in practice, does a POST to the Zapier webhook with the email content…

Here it is a nice video explaining pros and cons of orbital solar panels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZPrIE5ZMZA

It makes sense until you cross the point of diminishing returns. And I think many countries crossed that point by at least 20 percentage points.

I am still very surprised that Apple allows this kind of CSS/plugin power. I wonder if the reason is that Obsidian is so popular among a lot of influential iOS users, that rejectin…

All the other suggestions are good (especially the one remembering you that you do not HAVE to spend your free time on side projects). I want to add a small recent anecdotical sugg…
